Getting frustrated by some people expecting racism from me, because I got blown up. Yes. A Muslim man blew me up, and I lost my leg.

A Muslim man also lost his arm that day wearing a British Uniform.A Muslim medic was in the helicopter that took me from the fieldA Muslim surgeon performed the surgery that saved my lifeA Muslim Nurse was part of the team that helped me when I returned to the UKA Muslim Healthcare Assistant was part of the team that sorted out my day to day needs in rehabilitation when I was learning to walkA Muslim taxi driver gave me a free ride the first time I went for a beer with my Dad after I came home.A Muslim doctor offered my Dad comfort and advice in a pub, when he didnt know how to deal with my medicines and side effects.

Contrary to that, A white brit spat in my girlfriends face for ‘fucking a cripple when you could have me [him]’A White brit pushed my wheelchair away from a lift so he could use it first.A White brit screamed at my Dad for parking in a disabled bay when I was in the services coming home(Although, alot of people helped in my recovery! I dont hate white brits either! hahaha)

Point is, fuck off. I know who I dislike, and I know who I dont. I know who I appreciate, and I know who I dont. If you want to hate an entire race of men and women for the actions of a few dickheads feel free, but don’t push your views on me, thinking I am an easy target because one douchebag decided it was my day to die.

Blaming all Muslims for the actions of groups like Daeshe and the Taliban, is like blaming all Christians for the actions of the KKK or Westboro Baptist Church. Get a grip of your lives, hug your family and get back to work.

Reblogged this on meVolution and commented:
Reposted from Tom Pride’s blog, ‘Pride’s Purge’. It’s from a Facebook post by a wounded British Squaddie, Chris Herbert. Links to the original post are in the text. Perhaps it should be read by Donald Trump.

Muslims are practitioners of a religion, not a race. Muslims are white, black, grey, wtver, just like christians, buddhists, pastafarians, and so on. How is it that people are constantly equating religion with race? It’s stupid. Disliking muslims is antireligionist, not racist.

First of all, how the hell am I supposed to take this seriously with that kind of pic. Whoever wrote this might be serious, but to me it screams TROLL.
Plus what the others said is right. I thought muslims dont drink alcohol. Or not? Wth was a muslim doctor doing in a pub?
And thats right, religion is not a race.
I understand this guy meant well. And I do agree ppl need to stop being so fucking narrow minded.
Still, there are some things he said raises controversies and questions. Hmm….

[You clearly aren’t British. If you were you would know you don’t have to drink alcohol in a pub. Let me guess. American? A Trump supporter? The person you describe as “Whoever wrote this” is a serviceman who lost his right leg serving his country. It’s you who is ‘screaming’ troll..] -TOM

Could you just as easily made the case the other way. I always run situations through my mind and look at the end play . I feel the end result always ends in muslim domination of British society . Just a numbers game the majority votes in its chosen party. I just don’t see where you go as a white christian all christian countries seem to be to worried about pc.wont matter soon it will be to late.but it wont be us who suffer it will be are grand children. Wish I had the answer but other than adopting communist policies I have none

Point #1: Muslims are not a race. Jews are not a race. Christians are not a race. Stop bring race into this, it is not an issue of rsce.
Point #2: The Qu’ran states, among many hateful commandments “Allah will inspire terror in the hearts of infidels, lop off their heads and maim them in evrey limb!” The problem with the logic given here is that ISIS and the Taliban are following their religion, while the KKK and Westboro Baptist Cjurch are not following the words and deeds of Jesus, who stopped Jews from stoning people, said to love your enemies, and said that whatever you do to the most insignificant person, you do to Jesus. When the Klan lynches someone, it is like they are hanging Jesus. (Christians are not followers of Jesus, they are a terrorist group started by Jews)
Point #3: Jews, Christians and Muslims are all terrorists and should be treated as such. This is where Jews start saying they are a race, then people say Muslims are a race and then we end up back at point number one again…. and so nothing ever gets done to solve this problem.

It starts with Jews. They are the instigators of this problem, the hate that is here began with Jews. Hatred of gay men began with Jews, who have been calling for their death for close to 4000 years and it is a Jewish belief that everyone must follow this, Jew and stranger alike. If you were told that you are a Jew and you don’t think that gay men should be executed, please have the common courtesy and unselfish decency to say “I DON’T AGREE WITH THAT HATRED, I AM NOT A JEW!”
Point #4: Don’t expect me to hold my breath until this happens.
Point #5: How come nobody knows about Genrikh Yagoda, who killed millions of people BEFORE Hitler did?
Point #6: If you Jews, Christians and Muslims want to kill each other, please do, just do it away from me and don’t involve my country in it. We keep religion seperate from government…. which has Jews saying they are not a religion, they are a race and US taxpayer money can to to support Jewish institutions…. Which takes us back to point one… (in Israel, white Jews were giving black Jews birth control without their knowledge or consent, attempting to keep the from having children. NOT A RACE)

This is rubbish. Almost completely American terminology, terminology that a Brit squaddie would never use. I know this because U was one for 15 yrs. Douchebag? Nope. Referencing Westboro? Nope. Referencing KKK? Nope. This is bullshit.

Just because he served his country does not mean everything he says is correct, so they blew you up then helped you, how nice of them! It is part of Islam culture to hate anyone who is not Muslim, some follow it some don’t and they have few nice verses that most of them remember it exists only when someone criticize them for hating you, Islam is cancer! you either stop it or it will stop you.

Very nice propaganda piece although the author fails to grasp the FACT that Islam is NOT now, never has been and never will be a RACE. It is a Political Credo rooted and based upon the, (alleged), writings of a Violent War Lord with a taste for young girls. The Islamic Belief system is not compatible with the freedoms and Democratic systems we have in the West. Unlike Christianity and other belief systems Islam has not evolved and is still rooted in the 8th Century. While I respect Chris Herbert’s Service and sacrifice, (I also served), one only has to look around the World to see that the vast majority of the issues we in the West have to face emanate from “The Religion of Peace”

1… pubs in the uk serve food (omg i love the sticky toffee!)
2… pubs and bars serve non alcoholic drinks too
3… pubs and bars are social centers for groups of friends, solo’s just wanting to be in public and don’t forget sports
4… not all people follow their religion to the letter of the “law” .. i know some muslims who have an occasional drink, i know many christians that love their gluttony

the point is… stop looking for “this might be a troll” message, stop looking for excuses to keep hating

I love it when people say Islam is not a race so therefore I’m not racist, after being intolerant of all Muslims. Yes your right, your just a massive bigot instead. Not that you’d know what that means but hopefully you have the mental capacity to use the Wikipedia. Now we have cleared that up why don’t you fuck off back to Britain first with your bigoted views

The idea of race has NO rational basis. People say racism when they really mean bigotry. Can ANY OF YOU (including Tom) who have used the word “race” or “racism” define what you think differentiates one ‘race’ from another. I bet you can’t……

Get a grip of your lives, hug your family and get back to work.

Would agree that they are wise words….. and if it was not for the fact that islam is holding the rest of the world hostage with the threat of terror, then i would be 100% on board…
Yes we all know not every muslim is a terrorist, problem we all have though, is that even family members of the ones who are keep coming out afterwards with the comments “we had no idea he/ she had been radicalised… “he/she was always such a lovely person”.. so on and so on….
Point being if their closest family members cant tell the difference, then how can we ??
Then the other main problem is the lack of condemnation from the moderate muslim community !! So yes, there are arseholes in every religion and race… but unless those against the violence from every religion and race stand up as one to be counted, then the rest of us will be suspicious and sceptical !!

Terry, how is it you don’t equate your feelings with the violence of NATO and the often Christian violence of the US army, Don’t forget George W bush called the invasion of Iraq a crusade. You should stand up to the violence committed in your name if you feel that strongly.

I wasn’t too sure about the authenticity of the soldier myself – but I’m rather more concerned about the authenticity of Trump as president of the US. The content is realistic. Well said and thanks for saying it.
Islam has evolved as much as Christianity, whose primary world speakers still don’t accept birth control and don’t like women in their church. On a daily basis most people are just people and irrational blanket islamophobia is not a good response. And, moderate Muslims HAVE condemned the Paris attacks http://www.theguardian.com/world/2015/nov/18/muslim-council-britain-advert-paris-attack

Thank you for your service Sir., and for your rationallity. There are good and bad in every nationality, and each of us has suffered at our own tim. May we all pray to God that this stops soon and people get back to treating each other as human beings, with respect and dignity. I will pray for you and your family in my daily dua.

Why….o WHY is the term WHITE being used as opposed to MUSLIM? a WHITE brit? Why not a Christian Brit?? YOU ARE PLAYING INTO THE USA’s HANDS! they want all colors segregated for capitalist purposes! I urge you all to stop being racist. using the term black or white to catagorise a person is racist!

it’s simply bigoted to interpret Islam in this way… of course it is OK to criticize the Quran or any other religious texts but lets be clear the Bible is pretty violent: EG cutting off womens hands and the penalty for homosexual acts is death to both parties… and Christians even here in the UK recently have done some pretty bad things in name of religion… IE the Chemical Neutering of Alan Turing… and lets not even get into the Christians persecuting gays and female mutilation going on in Africa…

Mr. Chris Herbert… I salute you for your bravery.. People like you can make a difference in this world… If we all kept filling our bags of differences only hatred will emerge… I hope people understand that..

Bias BS, has a pop a the white british for having a go when his dad is clearly breaking the law… but not the IRAQI man who blew his leg off… says muslim is a race?? Hes clearly not educated, let me guess another PC leftwing helmet, joins the army to defend our country then slates the very people he was PAID by out of their taxes to protect. Total bias BS. If u want a left wing fuck off to kfc…

I lost my leg in a hospital due to a surgeon’s fook up. Guess what, he was muslim and has not accepted what he has done to me or what he has made me suffer. He is an arrogant bastard, just like the other muslim doctors that I have seen in the hospitals.
I will not let anyone who follows Islam treat me, I will never let anyone who wears a burka near me and you don’t need me to tell you what I think about races who follow this sick and violent religion.
Why the hell can’t people see that those who pray to the East are showing their erses to the West!

Well said dude !! And you off all people would be entitled to bear a grudge against the people who maimed you.
I hope you know how important your message is and am 120% behind you !!
What makes me really sick is the way right wing ignorant racist and people who obviously haven’t travelled and seen this glorious planet that we are a part of use these terrible events to further their own small minded and fear based agendas it’s shameful and so disrespectful to the victims on both sides of this Chrises.i am generally a pacification but am truthfully not sure how to progress this conflict… I don’t believe in alum less bombings that only create more of the same… I think what’s needed more than ever is a united world and a STRATEGY that considers what the long term aim is if what ever action we take. If not we will just keep on doing the same again and again and this will never end.
Big up to you for speaking up we need the truth from guys like you who have actually been there instead of more nonsense from self serving politicians who in my humble opinion don’t have a fucking clue what they are doing.
Useless wankers the lot of them !!

A lot of racists commenting below! Wow! How disappointing that some Brits are so obnoxious and stuck in the old times, I bet they hate homosexuals too. Well said mate! An entire religion/race should not be blamed for the extreme views and actions of the small percentage spread across the media.

True. A very good point. Although, it’s still actually a part of the image, since, in his last pasus about Christians and Muslims, you could say just as well that not all American and European Christians are to blame for the invasion on Iraq, in which he lost his leg for a fact… He’d never loose it if the British army didn’t participate in that act of aggression and in fact, a muslim ‘douchebag’ is an Iraqi citizen which legally defended his country. He didn’t shoot a civilian, he shot a soldier which belonged to the aggressor on his country. Not blaming him for being a British soldiers for a fact, people have different beliefs and attitudes and he surely believes it was a legitimate military action. But considering the facts you could say all of this as well.

Someone wrote “a Muslim in a pub, yeah” in a sarcastic tone. I’m a Muslim and I go to pubs. For the thick shits out there – you can get non alcoholic drinks in pubs. You’re probably too fucking drunk to know. On the other hand the Muslim doctor in the pub may have been drinking alcohol **NEWSFLASH” some Muslims drink, some so drugs, some are thieves, some are racist, some are terrorist (I said some), some are just fucked – basically there’s all sorts – like with every other race, religion or people of differing sexual orientation – YOU CAN’T PIGEONHOLE EVERYONE! Which was ultimately the point of this fine young mans post!

It’s really sad to see how much racism is being posted on here. This man has thought through his reactions, unlike some posters. He’s not bigoted – he knows full well that he was in an army that had invaded a foreign country, he’s not stupid. If, say, the Saudis invaded the UK to change our rulers, how many people would have a pop at their soldiers?

The racist people across the world are all the same. Trying to pin things on large groups like religions or races because it suits their fragile needs that make them believe they have some kind of higher purpose. They boldly reveal themselves online and in the street when they have a crowd of followers but I doubt they show their racism and fascism when they are applying for a job or in a court room because nobody wants a racist judge, doctor, policeman, fireman, soldier etc. In fact nobody who is racist or fascist should be allowed to function in public because they are a danger to society. They will one day crack down on these sick people they will be put on watch lists like pedophiles and taken away to camps for the mentally ill.

Reblogged this on Beastrabban’s Weblog and commented:
Chris Herbert, an Iraq war veteran, attacks anti-Islamic racists by pointing out all the kindness he has received from Muslims, as well as the hate and selfishness he has seen from Whites. His point is simple: there are good and bad everywhere, and you can’t hate all of race, people or religious group just because of the actions of a few.

I’m a Muslim and I believe I speak for every muslim with what I am about to write.
When the western speak about Islam with negativity, they speak with NO knowledge and no understanding what so ever.
The ISIS is a jew terrorist group, however, the western media do not and will not reveal this… why? Because they need a reason to loot the “muslim” states resources. Period!
Secondly, the coming events of Isis, ISIL etc was warned to all the Muslims 1400 years ago, where MUSLIMS were warned to fight against the group of people who preached to be muslims yet create bloodshed amongst themselves.
Racist people cannot see beyond colour. I mean. “White Christians” are hardly saints, yet they do not get categorised as TERRORISTS!!! The shootouts in America. The white police officers killing innocent members of the public just because of the colour of their skin. It’s beyond ridiculous. The Western government are the real terrorists. The RACISTS are the puppets. End of. If you do not like muslims because of their beliefs and your hypocritical thoughts of them being violent etc then you should take a look at your own history. Kkk was a racist bunch of twats who created terror which in my ideology is terrorism. Or what about the white nurses who go about killing their patients by syringing them with poison. Once again… RESEARCH YOUR OWN HISTORY. I’m done

I’m amazed at how ignorant and brainwashed the western Christians are. I tell you people you are being taken as fools by your government’s. You are being taken on a long ride and at the end of that ride they will push you over the cliff.The soldier has seen the truth.bravo to him for speaking the truth and for sharing his thoughs

Reading the comments from anti-muslim EDL/BNP/UKIP wankers I had to point out – this guy went to war while you were claiming fucking benefits and watching Jeremy Kyle.

You are more of a leech on society than 100 muslims, because they actually WORK for their money.

The kind of people that have come here to call this guy “left wing” (as if an uneducated cunt like you would actually know what that means) are the kind of people that yell the loudest about “immigrants” and all that, but if you are claiming benefits of any kind you have NO SAY ON WHERE TAXPAYERS MONEY SHOULD GO and if there is money to help refugees then GOOD, because they are more valuable to the UK than the ugly racist dole scum that turn up to wave their fucking flags and sing racist football chants.

If you don’t like muslims then that’s up to you, but if it’s becoming unbearable to you that you have to share your lazy benefits with other people then do us all a favour and KILL YOURSELF you useless pikey cunts.

Reblogged this on Opher's World and commented:
This sums up a lot of things. I hate racism. I dislike all religion and would like to see it all gone. But you cannot blame all Muslims for the savagery and brutality of a minority.

Muslim isn’t a race it’s a religion! Second most people are not against Muslims as a whole it’s the ideology and the radicalization of it we have an issue with! Let’s face it we have every right to be this way! It isn’t Hindu’s, Jews or Christians going around blowing themselves up or killing 100’s of innocent people!

Thank you for these words! It’s so important to remember the best in people and discard the worst…so glad you are here to share this and seem to have come through it all with such dignity and your fierce spirit intact. All the best to you.

I Lost My Wallet. Money, Licence (With Address) Credit Cards Etc. The Next Day The Police Rang Me As It Was Handed In. I Picked It Up & 100% INTACT, Not One Cent Missing ! Unannounced I Called At The Home Of The Person Who Found It. I Introduced Myself, Paused But My Name Was Unknown To Him… As It Was ”TOO PERSONAL” & He Could Not Look Inside The Wallet. I Gave Him A Lottery Ticket In Thanks…Yes The Gentleman Was Of The Muslim Faith. Like Billions Of People In The World He Was Compassionate, Respectful & Honest. His Religious Beliefs Should Not Even Be Of Any Concern To Anyone Else But In Such Twisted Times As The Present I Mention It Our Story For Some Balance.

Yeah,I think that islam is like cancer, it makes you ignore any other disease.Rest is taqia.On the other hand what is he saying is available for isis too.They cure you for a accurate beheading.Christian doctors are making this on daily routine, sometimes shot in yhe ambulance and bullied in the londons no-go muslim zones but they are not making so much fass as that muslims paid by the brits of course for helping a soldier sent on english money to defend them from their own cowardness facing their dumber relatives.

I’m clearly reading the wrong Internet. I’m seeing scarcely any Islamophobia or anti-Muslim racism or whatever you care to call it, but I am seeing an enormous amount about “Not all Muslims are part of the problem”.

After the Paris attacks, with good reason to believe that similar attacks were imminent in Brussels, it seemed to me a good time to put aside all demographics who were “not part of the problem” and focus on those who were, but “Not all Muslims are part of the problem” was mystifyingly played like a stuck record instead, while nobody much was suggesting that they were.

Since a well-founded and rational fear of being blown to bits (or even getting stabbed in the Underground) does not constitute Islamophobia, I could suggest other priorities.

I recently came across the term “virtue signalling”, and I wonder if that isn’t what’s going on here.

This whole article is so wrong!… The guy writing this is being so racist without knowing it LOL!… Because he’s the one tieing a race to specific religion!… I MEAN WHAT THE FUCK?!… You can be anti-muslim/islam (islamophobia) WITHOUT BEING RACIST! o.0

Your a credit to the armed forces. Also I wish the media would stop using the term IS (Islamic State!) they are not an Islamic State, Egypt, Tunisia, Morocco ect are Islamic states where different religions colors & creeds live together. As we are a Christian state doing the same. They should in future be referred to as ES for ‘Evil State’. As the way they live and force there views & tirrony on others has no basis in any religion.

Bitch pleae the title of this post should be… Wounded British Muslim soldier shuts up anti-Muslim racists with epic message

all those muslims doing good stuff to you may only mean that you are also a muslim. Or they are not muslims but kinda looks like one so with you unconsciously being a racist thinks that they are. Or they are no longer muslims and just you not knowing it all along.

A real muslim follows the teaching of Qumran and in it befriending a non muslim is a sin.

I WAS being seen by a Muslim Doctor, and he was/is the most arrogant and uncaring SOB. He would never listen to anything I have to say about how I feel or even ask how the prior treatment was working, he simply didn’t care about me as a patient and I told him to his face he was an arrogant piece of shit and that I was not coming back…maybe it was just him, but he was a complete and total fucking asshole…

I have to say Chris for a man who has suffered,you show great wisdom.Indeed only a racist shortsighted fool would blame every Muslims for actions of a few fanatics.My respects sir to you and your family,have a wonderful Christmas DT.

It’s refreshing to hear that not everyone stereotypes Muslims, the way the media does. I am a practising Muslim and condemn the actions of Daesh and any terror group. I pray peace prevails all over the world.

Only, it isn’t “racism” is it? Islam is a faith / system of governance / code of laws followed by and made up of people from all races. Many Jews of the same race as Palestinians and again, racism is bandied about willy nilly. Your point is understood and taken, but I am tired of the racism moniker being thrown around everywhere when it doesn’t necessarily apply.

It is sad that most people don’t understand the difference between race and religion. Nor does this valiant soldier. As much as I dislike Donald Trump, he has a right to his opinion just like everyone else. We don’t have to like it. Sinking to Trump’s level though defeats the exact principles most pretend to uphold.

Anyone rational person who has read the koran with an open, critical mind will have reservations about islam being “peaceful” and “tolerant” .. but if I speak this truth, I can only expect to be branded a racist (by people on a bandwagon) .. For people in the know this is a serious cause to worry .. I have not hatred, just justifiable concerns based on painstaking research .. Too many people who have no idea what sharia law is or what is is the islamic texts on which they are based have strong opinions on the subject .. that in itself has to be wrong .. Sharia law is simply not compatible with democracy .. An intelligent person will check the facts for themselves .. a thug will take my words to justify hatred and a fool more interested in being popular than in knowing the truth will call me names .. of these three, which are you ?

What I’m sick of hearing is
“Islam is not a race”
People use the word racist but in general the proper word is discrimination
But whether you are racist or you discriminate there is no difference
Stupid people need to find a new sentence to use it’s getting a bit old

Firstly let me say that I totally understand the sentiments of this soldier and that it is highly noble of him to be so aware that it isn’t all Muslims that are barbarous, blood thirsty psychopaths intent on destroying everyone and everything in this world. But there is an issue with people who use the word racist in this scenario and such like. In fact anyone who acknowledges racism is in effect acknowledging race and races and perpetuating the problem of prejudice themselves. Race is a tricky subject that not even scientists are completely sure of. It seems to be something like a taxonomic hierarchy, biologists for example have identified different ‘races’of plants and animals. It seems the lines between species and race are blurred even in the scientific world. So I think it is better for us all if we stop subscribing to this idea of race and make no differentiation between one human and another and simply accept that we are all humans and if you do want to apply the idea of a race to it then how about we all agree that we are all part of the ‘human race’. The concept of race can’t be applied to religious beliefs and shouldn’t be applied at all to any humans regardless of skin colour, size, weight, gender, sexual preference and so on and so forth. Anyone who identifies a bunch of people with the same political, theological, physical or mental similarities in a negative way without any form of understanding, knowledge or awareness is simply prejudiced. Let’s just get away from this flawed and monocular concept of race then maybe we can move forward together as humankind….

For those of you who compare the koran to the old testament ..
Both as bad as each other ? …
Having read both I can tell you there is no comparison !
There are at least 109 calls to violence in the core islamic texts
Having read the koran I feel like I have seen inside the Trojan horse
and that I should warn the world as to what’s in there
But don’t just take my word for it
Buy yourself some new reading glasses folks !
Because the media is already too terrorised to tell you
Just a few extremists and all the others are moderate you say ?
no shades of grey ? .. no supporters ? .. no sleeper cells ? .. no moral supporters ? none who do not like democracy ? .. none who don’t jump for joy every time there is a so called terrorist attack ? .. BS !!!
I would call people who suffer this delusion to think again.
Sure .. 2 wrongs don’t make a right .. obviously !
What I am saying is that we should we be naive and blind

Islam is a religion for believers called muslims. Muslims are people who are ofcourse humans and do make mistakes and wrongdoings.
The only sacrifice allowed in Islam is to sacrifice an animal like,sheep,goat,camel,cow and bulls, for giving off to the less fortunate people regardless of religion. Sacrificing human is a huge NO.

muslims are not a race. They are supporters of an ideology, people need to be allowed to call out and question actions of people supporting an ideology without the fear of stupid labels thrown around. How do you all these people involved in your care were Muslims? How do you know these asshole Brits you seem to meet so frequently were not Muslims?

It’s a great message, but even if everyone on the ‘west side’ took this to heart, we would still have a problem because there’s hate on the other side too – a hate that is driven by a terrible ideology fueled by an interpretation of a religon.

Racism is not the right word. Prejudice is the right word that covers all debates like this. Judging people before you haveany more than very little information about them. Otherwise, good rant, Chris.

ok Lets get this straight a true Muslim so where do ISIS get off saying they are Muslim they are not. They may have been at one time but they have fallen and are now anything but. They are hater’s a Muslim is a lover..
You want to hate hate ISIS,ISIL, AND FALLEN MUSLIM’S Don’t mix up a true honest to go Muslim with a fallen no good for nothing piece of Pooh

Or the BLM group blaming all white people for slavery or all cops for the actions of some. People who have expressed concern about Muslims are actually…………..for the most part………….referring to radicalized Islamists…………….. and those we should be concerned with.

They are all nice Muslims until one day you wake up and learn that your a Christian minority and the extremists are in charge of their religion. How long do you think it will take for one of your nice neighbours to point you out to them. I have no problem with what ever religion people practice provided they don’t at some point require my conversion or else ! Check out.. THE AGENDA OF ISLAM – A WAR BETWEEN CIVILIZATIONS by Professor Moshe Sharon here is an opening paragraph…”Allah sent Mohammed with the true religion so that it should rule over all the religions.”

Exactly, bravo to this man! Hate is perpetuated by racism. Racism perpetuates racists. If you stop and think about it, he’s right and that’s what I have been saying all along. Even the missionaries at residentials schools, don’t blame ALL of them for the few who were pedophiles or hormonal-raged women! Stop the nonsense and get on with your lives! LOVE will overcome ALL by exemplary role models like this guy!

No one should defend Muslims or Islam when what they stand for is barbaric and disgusting. Google their own Muslim Sharia Laws. You know death if you leave Islam, marriage of children to men, genital mutilation, a woman is worth less than a man, death to all gays and lesbian’s! Islam’s goal is to take over the world. Islam translated means to dominate. It’s not a peaceful religion. Also, watch out for Taquuia and Kitman – Google those terms and educate yourselves to Islam.

I grew tired of mozzers telling me I do not know what I am talking about after having read all the verse of violence and then some (IN CONTEXT) .. I am awaiting for a copy of the koran to arrive in the post so I can read it in FULL to see if I feel any different about islam when I have .,.. BUT even if it was a fairy story I still want to understand why would anyone in their right mind want to call them self muslim when it is synonymous with so much mindless evil in the world .. why arent they ashamed of it ? and why the hell do they imagine that islam is a good thing ? .. I want honest answers .. not takiyya .. and I will find honest answers

islam is synonymous with the worst atrocities in the world … so what does that say about the people that insist on following it ? .. if they were such good people … surely they would bin the religion off in disgust right ? .. don’t even think about giving me that crap about isis not being muslims .. who the hell do you think you are kidding ?

Synonymous with the worst atrocities in the world? I’m not sure that’s justifiable- atrocities but a few hundred people in Paris and under 3000 from NY still results in a low bodycount even if you add it all together; compared to the holocaust or the USA’s bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki (which combined killed almost a quarter of a million civilians over two days) were far more extreme. That’s not to say Daesh wouldn’t set off a dirty bomb or similar if they could, they just havn’t been able to yet.

synonymous … justifiably or not ! .. but that is another debate .. would it hurt muslims in the west to abandon their religion and fit to show they don’t disagree with our way of doing things ? .. must they be at odds with us in their adherence to their alien culture ? .. I find them disrespectful in these respects .. especially in light of the terror attacks that have been made in the name of allah .. disrespectful of their host nations

Humans are imperfect. To argue the merit of a religion based on human behaviors is fraud! We must go back to the scriptures themselves. When a Christian or Buddhist commits acts of terror, he is betraying his faith. Violence is *NOT* authorized anywhere in the *NEW* Testament or the 84,000 Buddhist teachings! There is *NO* equivocation that violence is condemned. On the other hand, if a Muslim commits violence against a non-believer, whether he is following or betraying his faith is actually DEBATABLE! Moderate Muslims and naive politically correct idealists emphasize the fact that most Muslims are good people, and therefore they call anyone who is Islamophobic a bigot. Unfortunately, either through ignorance or being disingenuous, their interpretation of the Quran is just their OPINION. Violence is *AUTHORIZED* in the Quran! Read Surah 2.190-2.194 among others for yourself. Certainly they would insist these 5 verses are rules of engagement from Prophet Mohammad to his followers prior to the Battle of Badr and should only be read as “historic account” and nothing more. Here is the problem. Treating the Quran as merely a history book is again *OPINION*. Meanwhile the radical Muslims are treating these 5 verses as *TIMELESS* teachings otherwise why would they be captured into the Quran out of all things occurred in history? After all the Quran is a holy book, not a history book! This represents another opinion. Unless the moderate Muslims can articulate their interpretation of the Quran is more correct than those of the radical Muslims, then Islam is problematic from the very scripture it is based on!

Hatred is of course wrong .. But so is ignorance .. Do not be fooled .. The koran promotes peace ONLY among muslims and promotes violence against everyone (else unless they convert to islam) in many verses (well over 100 of them) .. Most of these verses are clearly INSTRUCTING violence .. They have not been translated or interpreted incorrectly and are not taken out of context .. Claims among muslims that they are are deceptive .. and there are clear instructions to deceive unbelievers in the text of the koran .. Don’t take my word for it .. do your homework and see for yourself (google “koran verses violence”) .. The koran is not about peace .. that is an erroneous assumption on the part of the ignorant .. The koran is about jihad .. I say this because it is something all “infidels” should be aware of before embracing islam and it’s followers wholesale

Al-Tubari Early Koranic Scholar 839AD – 923AD :
“when under the authority of the infidels behave loyally to them with your tongue (in what you say) while harboring inner animocity for them. Allah has forbidden believers from being friendly or intimate with the infidels, except where infidels are above them in authority. In such a scenario act as if they were your friend” …. Maybe some of them are OK .. maybe a lot of them are .. but the more I learn about the religion they hold so dear, the more trust issues I have with them .. The truth will set you free .. so help me God

The Bible: (Samuel 15:3): “This is what the Lord Almighty says … ‘Now go and strike Amalek and devote to destruction all that they have. Do not spare them, but kill both man and woman, child and infant, ox and sheep, camel and donkey.’ “

islam is ok because it says that in the bible ? .. think again .. 2 wrongs don’t make a right .. christianity is not the threat .. this is about a real threat to national security Tom .. not some silly game .. and if you think it some how constructive or clever to undermine me as a christian .. think again because I am not a christian
